Hey guys! I'm thrilled to have accepted UVA's offer, and I'd love to get to know other people on the program. If you feel like it, do reach out at uva.gradstud17@gmail.com (temporary)

My first offer of admission...kiss goodbye to anxiety...good luck everyone!

1 paper near publishing, 2 grad courses, finished my degree in 3 years, 2.5 years of research experience, decent-to-strong letters of recommendation, was homeless in high school, good/strong personal statement, 1 Summer REU at a top school... IDK why I wasn't admitted. I've heard back from top 10 schools but Penn state rejects me? lmao

This was the first program I applied to and It was an accident (rough draft of my SOP was submitted, etc.). Oh well. Also, the email was terribly informal. Sent by the Dean of the graduate school (why not the department...?) Here's my summary: 0a/0w/3r (PSU, Yale, brown)/3itv/13p, from a school ranked ~200 in the USA, Math/Econ major stats minor, 3.81 gpa, 2.5 yrs of research (1 yr in an NSF funded program, 2.5 in McNair Scholars, 8wks at prestigious school for summer REU); research in complex numbers, statistics (KDE and QReg), and computational financial math (at summer REU), only 3 years of university (took AP/DC courses in HS), 1 paper near publication, at least 3 decent letters of recommendation (2 McNair advisers (1 being a prof. I had in 3 classes Summer REU), I was homeless in HS which inspires what I want to study, and I have an internship in Act.Sci/Pred.Analyt. at a good company for SUM'18, president of 2 clubs, treasurer of one, Vice Prez of a political org. (raised $5,000 for Hurr. Harvey and sent down goods), and I’m a mentor for at-risk (drugs/homelessness) kids and I mentor/tutor for TRIO. I sent 2 GRE scores to all schools (161v/165q/5w and 158v/166q/5w). I want to research market design/IO/MicroE, namely, types of market exchanges/Auct.Thy/Game.Thy.

Rejected, informal email. 0a/4r/3itv/12prnrnI'm honestly surprised, two of my letter writers got their Ph.D. from Rice (stats and math). I've done research with these two professors and I know they think favorably of me. I've done about 2.5 years of research, sent two gres... I'm the person who just posted about brown with the lengthy description.

I was curious if any of the responses here were legitimate so I emailed the school (since people are posting very early compared to most years which have responses like 2 weeks after what people on here posted). I was told: "...Economics hasn’t made any offers yet, so there’s not even an official wait list at this time...." Figured as much

I applied to PhD in Econ but the email said that they admitted me to the 1 year masters program instead of the PhD. Anyone know if this is common? Beat of luck everyone!!

I applied for the PhD in Economics, but haven't heard from that yet. I did not apply for this Master's program specifically, so I'm afraid this probably means my PhD application was rejected.
